Biographies

James Ash
The inspiration behind many of the vocals of the Rogue Traders and already a talented DJ, James Ash was a member of the original Rogue Traders band which release an album and three singles with mixed success. His talents can be heard in the unique electronic syntheses that feature heavily throughout most of the Rogue Traders Songs.

Natalie Bassingthwaighte
Arguably one of the keys of the bands success as the Rogue Traders restarted with Natalie Bassingthwaighte as their lead singer. Whilst other factors like solid backing from Sony BMG and the talents of the existing members, Natalie brought fresh life into the band through her unique personality and also helped the band establish a sizable fan base many of whom picked up on the band and helped spread the word after following her in Neighbours. Interest was also generated thanks to the bands rock style which went against the pop image that is generally embraced by soap stars who make the leap into music. It's possible the Rogues could have had similar success with another unknown singer (as Natalie was at the time of her joining the band) but it's doubtful they would have brought the same energy and style (jumping around on stage and loud vocal screams mid song) to the band.

Steve Davis
Making up the second part of the original Rogue Traders, Steve Davis keeps a relatively low key profile despite being feature in the Voodoo Child video clip and being a part of the band since Natalie Bassingthwaighte joined. He remains part of the band has yet to take to the stage with the Rogues in the numerous live gigs they have done.

Cam McGlinchey
The drummer for the band who tends to be present at most of the gigs and performances the band does. His part with the band came into existence as the popularity of the Rogue Traders increased in 2005 and promotional work began in earnest. Cam is also rumour to be dating Natalie Bassingthwaighte, though details of a possible relationship are being kept relatively private

Tim Henwood
Guitarist for the Rogue Traders, Tim followed a similar path into the band as Cam, appearing as the Rogue Traders began playing public gigs in 2005. Several of the songs feature sections of riffs played by Tim which translate well on stage. Whilst on stage Tim tends to stand fairly close to Natalie and the pair interact as part of the spectacle of the band playing live.
